Blue Wings chronicles author Rose Anna Higashi's intellectual and spiritual journey toward healing. This powerful and intensely personal journal contains vivid poetic images and insightful narrative that hold her thoughts on nature, love, marriage, family and faith. Its literary charm makes Blue Wings irresistible reading.
Initially, Rose Anna Higashi is a hurting and painfully bitter woman, who cries out against the stifling effects that power, egotism, racism, and sexism have imposed on our culture. Patriarchal social structures, she writes, account for much of today's violence. As she continues on her pilgrimage of self-awareness, Ms. Higashi learns to question her own feelings, guilts, doubts, and anger. She begins to explore her own responsibilities in society and to understand that change is possible, but that it rises first from within the soul. Higashi e Anna
Nurtured by this discovery, Ms. Higashi experiences through prayer and meditation a grace that overwhelms her anguish. Forgiveness follows and allows an inner strength to courageously reorient her life. Where there once was only darkness, a commitment to self lights a new way. And, as the journey draws to a close, we find Ms. Higashi with a clear focus on honesty, beauty, creativity, and a reverence for all living things.
Blue Wings is a compassionate guide for women who are struggling with difficult issues. Raw with the pain of loss and struggle and yet mystical in the beauty of its poetry, this authentic story will reveal to all lof us where peace can be found.
